It's almost impossible to identify anyone from this era as his peer (and if you try to say Elon Musk you can go gently caress yourself). He set multiple air speed records, revolutionized the business of air travel and was the richest man in the world for decades. He went on to control almost the entire state of Nevada through his various casino holdings and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute endures to this day. He also smarmed a senator but good who tried to screw over his TWA routes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KNUavnbCzc

He would also sit naked in his hotel bedroom with a pink hotel napkin placed over his genitals, watching movies.

A rich kid who bought companies he took credit for, and was a total piece of poo poo
